Here's a beautiful way to celebrate Valentine's Day—for yourself or with friends—that won't burn a hole in your wallet and will do a little good in the world. This season, American Eagle Outfitters has teamed up with LIFE Line, a nonprofit that works with Kenyan mothers to create this beaded "Love" bracelet as part of its sustainable sewing program, which provides income for these women's families. The American Eagle Outfitters Love bracelet is hand-breaded, leather, and made in Kenya. The program creates jobs for more than 400 Maasai women. And, according to Maasai tradition, the red beads represent bravery, strength, and unity. So, how about it? This Valentine's Day, spread the love by picking up a #LoveIsProject bracelet at your neighborhood American Eagle Outfitters. read more

What started as an April Fools' joke from American Eagle is actually coming to life! Meet American Beagle, a line of clothes made for dogs, ensuring pets and their owners can rock equally awesome clothing from the retailer. While the collection has not yet been designed, these are some of the adorable faux American Beagle Outfitters pieces “We originally felt that April Fools’ Day was the perfect opportunity for us to engage with our consumers in a fun, lighthearted way, all while supporting the ASPCA,” said Michael Leedy, chief marketing officer of American Eagle Outfitters, Inc., in a statement released today. “Due to the tremendous positive response and excitement from our customers for the American Beagle Outfitters line, we decided to make a limited-edition collection for Holiday 2014.” In the meantime, customers can donate to the cause and check out more of the American Beagle Outfitters collection at ae.com/dogs. Also not to be missed, this hysterical "dogumentary" about the making of the collection. Is this one of the best April Fools' Day jokes you've seen come to fruition? read more

Last night, just down the street from Glamour HQ, American Eagle Outfitters celebrated the launch of its brand-new "Rock Your Walk" initiative—where famous faces strut their stuff on street around the country wearing AE's iconic denim. Check out a sampling of what "Rock Your Walk" is all about, right here: At last night's party, two of our favorite leading ladies, Vanessa Hudgens and Jessica Szohr, hung out, snacked on popcorn (our favorite!), took selfies, and printed their photos on T-shirts (amazing!). I'm super-obsessed with the Instagram T-shirt maker: Mmm, popcorn: And, of course, Vanessa and Jessica posed for some BFF photos: What I love is that both their looks are super-affordable, since everything is from AE. Here's Jessica's head-to-toe—she's in AE's skinny cropped jeans ($29) and an AE "Everywhere" burn-out tank ($10). And Vanessa is wearing AE's skinny cropped jeans ($29); a cropped T-shirt ($10); and the AE safari shirt ($44), which I think really pulls the whole look together. Whose head-to-toe American Eagle Outfitters look do you like the best? Tell us in the comments! Photos: Michael Simon, StarTraks Photo, Courtesy read more
